Is it possible to break out of an IF statement like this ...

Code: Select all

 
if (condition) {
  if (condtion) {
    //break out to first conditions else...
  }
} else {
  //do this..
}

What are you using this for? Are there reasons to not using elseif? If an if statement returns false it's just ignored anyways.

There is no breaking out in the sense of a loop, but you can certainly construct the logic to control what is done, and not done, under specific conditions:

Code: Select all

if (condition1) {
  if (condtion2) {
    // code that meets both condition1 and condition2 will run here
  }
} else {
  //do this if not condition1, but still could be condition2
}
